We say “questionable” advisedly, because the only real reason for maintaining the all-inclusive framework of the United Nations is to maintain some possible avenue for the adjudication of our inter- national differences.

The reasons for this particular defeat began at Wake Island, and go back in part to two factors— a brilliant, strong-minded general who knew exactly what he wanted, and a President not versed in mili- tary strategy who, as a former National Guard Artillery Captain, was dazzled by braid and brass.

However, the State Department, already harassed at being called pro-Commul made only indif- ferent attempts to hold back this daring military drive.
